He's better defensively than Rakitic. Some people will get rattled or butthurt now, but he's simply way more athletic and gifted to make so many crucial defensive breaks.

I agree with you but we don't have money for that.

Perhaps if we sell Coutinho and Rakitic both. Eriksen won't cost that much given he's rejecting every contract renewal offer and his contract runs out in one year. In 9 months he can sign a pre-contract.

He was clearly dead tired in the last 20 min.

I doubt we'll sell Cou. Eriksen will probably end up in Madrid. Look we can't buy every single player. It doesn't work like that. We have two FANTASTIC young midfielders (Arthur and De Jong) so let's be grateful on that. We also shouldn't forget that Alena is more AM than CM so if he keeps developing we'll be more than covered. To be fair I would be much happier if we could finally develop ONE La Masia kid than to splash another huge amount on Eriksen.

So was most of Ajax players in the last 10 minutes. They ran 10KMs more than Real Madrid who cover more distance than Barca in the Champions League.
Ajax and their players unlike our players actually press the ball carrier and move off the ball all the time while our divas stand there and look at the ball.
Hopefully Raki was watching Frankie tonight and will hopefully change his mind about wanting to stay ..
I bet he’s starting to pack as we speak

What an exhibition.
Wow. Good presentation in our training camp
Wow. Good presentation in our training campWe don’t need Eriksen, play Coutinho in midfield better than spending 100-150m on midfield again.
We now have very strong midfield with Arthur and De Jong. Time to look at attack and get sub for Suarez, and may be sub for Pique as well. I like De Light a lot.
We also need to put an eye on Neres and Ziyech

True. I do not mean CAM the classic CAM. I mean more as an attacking midfielder, Iniesta type. This is how I see our traditional midfield in 433, Busquets CD(Defensive)M, Xavi CC(Central)M and Iniesta CA(Attacking)M
CDM: gets the ball
CCM: controls the play, changes the rhythm, changes the play
CAM: moves the ball forward, dribbles past players to create chances
